God saw you getting tired, fixing the Vega was not to be, the cattle/horsebreeding will have to be someone's worry but I do wish you were still here with me!! Miss you Dad, it is hard to believe that it has been almost ten years and I don't work on cars anymore either! Love you!! - Posted by: Glenda,Cruikshank (children & grandchildren) (Eldest Daughter) on: Jun 03, 2012
